So i have been running a site that hosts some high-quality (large size) pictures for about a year now. I started running on a shared hosting plan on hostpapa.com which has done its job up to now. But now i am finding that it is simply too slow to support the growing traffic to my website. Pages take forever to load. So basically i am looking for something faster.My requirements:
- ~15-20GB storage
- ~250-350GB monthly transfer (last month’s transfer was 235.91 Gig. but i have taken some steps and that should be cut down to about 150-180GB/month for now. I do want to leave room for growth though)
- It needs to be fast. At least 2-4 times faster than the shared hosting stuff you get from hostpapa and dreamhost
- It needs to cost no more than $15/month
- It needs to be able to host at least 2-3 domains
- PHP/Mysql would be nice (dont currently use them but i may in the future if i change the format of the site. For now it’s just java and html)The site gets about 500 unique visitors a day (they view about 10 pages per visit on average) which isn’t all that much, but like i said the pictures are quite large and i dont want users waiting 1-2 minutes for each to load (high quality .png renders)
I am open to any suggestions, but only if the suggesters have used the host themselves in the past.
thanks in advance
PS.
currently looking at the Advanced Plan at MDD hosting and the shared gold plan at DowntownHost based on a recommendation, but i dont really know enough about either company to make a choice and i want to get other suggestions as well before i do.
